As for me, I changed mine recently at 125k upon the recommendation of my mechanic sifu. I hardly drive my car so imagine my scare when I had a 'super acceleration' when I stepped on my pedal to overtake someone on the road. It's like new found power in my gear changes and thus I held back the acceleration and the shifts became more prominent. Since I had a costly lesson on my GB with my e36 before I know that it could spell certain $$$. I quickly read up on all issues regarding this again and decided to take my car out today. No issues whatsoever now. i guess I was just surprised at the surge of power with the gear changes when I stepped on the pedal. I drove my normal driving style today (always with my wife and daughter so more sedated) and no issues at all with my gear changes. Phew! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
